About Lynne:
Partially sighted 45 year old mixed media artist from Abbots Langley, United Kingdom. Many moons ago I was a graphic artist. I discovered ATC's nearly 6 years ago. Being disabled and not able to work I have a lot of time on my hands. Most of that spare time I use to create art or work on crafting projects. I also enjoy altered art and jewellery making.
